However, the most crucial thing now was the other person's injuries. After hesitating for a moment, she ultimately let her have her way.
Such a thing was unthinkable for her before; she could only keep comforting herself that it was all for the sake of saving people.
But she didn't realize that if it were anyone else, she would never agree to save them in this way, even if it meant doing so.
After a while, she finally managed to lift her head again and looked at the unconscious Zuan, who was licking his lips as if he was still not satisfied.
Yan Xuehen felt both shy and amused; this guy was acting like a little kid.
Looking at the remaining Yuanling Dew in the jade bottle, she pursed her lips, sighed softly, and finally poured it into her mouth again, bending down to help him pass it over.
When the other person pursued her again, her heart pounded wildly, and she felt a tremor in her very soul.
She recalled discussing love with her apprentice, Chu Yan, in the past. At the time, she couldn't understand why her talented and promising apprentice would abandon the promising path of heaven and insist on indulging in love instead.
To everyone's surprise, Chu Chuyan, who had always respected her, retorted that she didn't understand love at all.
At the time, Yan Xuehen was not angry. Having entered the state of detachment many years ago, she was almost incapable of having such negative emotions. Instead, she discussed with the other party what love is.
At that time, Chu Chuyan said that she would miss him if she couldn't see him, and she would feel anxious and insecure if she saw him. Any physical touch, even just holding hands, would give her a tremor from the depths of her soul.
At the time, Yan Xuehen scoffed at these things and even lectured the other party, saying that their mastery of the "Supreme Forgetfulness Chapter" was not high enough, which was why they had such messy emotions.
But now she is experiencing firsthand the feeling her apprentice described. Could this be the legendary love?
In fact, for grandmasters like them who roam the world, love is not a monster. In her early years, she even thought about starting a relationship, getting into love first, and then forgetting love. Maybe she could even improve her understanding of the Supreme Forgetfulness Chapter.
However, no man had ever caught her eye, and the idea of dating just any man was unimaginable for her. Nevertheless, through her exceptional talent and temperament, she cultivated herself to a state of detachment from worldly desires.
However, her cultivation level has stagnated over the years, and she has reconsidered this issue.
Unfortunately, she has long since become too detached from love. She used to look down on any man, and now she is even less likely to be interested in one.
However, the appearance of Zuan was an unexpected and huge surprise.
In the past, she might have been happy to go with the flow and have a pure love affair with him, which could be considered a way to temper her heart in the mortal world and make up for the last flaw in her life. Perhaps she could even break through her long-dormant spiritual barriers.
Unfortunately, the other party happens to be his disciple's man, regardless of their master-disciple relationship or the nature of this world.
Human ethics and moral principles do not allow her to have such thoughts.
But what she feared most came to pass. The more she tried to restrain herself and distance herself from him, the stronger her emotions became once they erupted.
Now, in this forbidden zone of the snow-covered mountains, where there is no human society and no usual rules and regulations, she suddenly felt much more relaxed.
Unfortunately, the most urgent task is to save the other person's life.
After feeding him like this several times, she finally transferred every last drop of the Yuanling Dew to Zu'an.
The pain on the other person's face eased slightly, and the various broken wounds on his body gradually stabilized. It seemed that the sealing effect of the Yuanling Dew was indeed effective, at least the situation in Zu'an did not deteriorate further.
But that's all. To save him, we'll have to find another way.
"It's so hot..." Zuan suddenly groaned, and at the same time began to tear at his clothes, as if he would not be satisfied until he took them off.
Yan Xuehen's expression froze, and she hurriedly reached out to check. As soon as her fingers touched his skin, she immediately withdrew them; it was simply too cold.
You should know that she originally cultivated ice-type techniques, and when she used the Snowflake Divine Sword, snow would fall everywhere.
Even she couldn't stand the icy chill. Clearly, she had just been affected by the snow woman's terrifying cold energy. The backlash from her previous use of the key was so severe that the cold energy hadn't manifested itself.
Now that the backlash from the key has been suppressed, the extreme cold has begun to emerge.
It's truly a case of misfortunes never coming singly!
Yan Xuehen was feeling somewhat powerless. He didn't even know what to do about the Dao injuries he had suffered from the backlash, and now he had to deal with the deadly cold poison left behind by the Snow Maiden.
Looking at the wind and snow around him, Yan Xuehen knew that if he stayed in this open environment, things would only get worse.
She quickly put his hand on her shoulder, put her other arm around him, and started looking around for a safe place.
Although she was injured, cultivators are inherently incredibly strong, and she could still bear the weight of a person.
She looked around and found a valley in the distance where the snow seemed to have lessened. She didn't care about the dangers there anymore and helped him walk towards it.
"It's so hot~" A sound of tearing fabric came from behind. Yan Xuehen turned around and saw that Zu An, in his unconscious state, had instinctively torn a large hole in the collar of his clothes.
She became anxious: "Don't take it off! This is all an illusion!"
She had just fallen into a similar state, but fortunately, Bai Yujing had a deep foundation and some life-saving magic treasures on her body. In addition, she was able to wake up after leaving the area affected by the Snow Maiden.
Unfortunately, these magical artifacts are disposable—consumables—so she couldn't give them to Zaun.
Moreover, Zaun had just taken the brunt of the Snow Maiden's blizzard to protect her, so the coldness inside her body was much more severe than before.
